I Am New – Student Journal

40-Day Student Discipleship Journal

Equip students to live out the 8 essential habits of every believer

I Am New is a 40-Day Student Discipleship Journal designed to teach students 8 essential habits of every believer.

All it takes to start following Jesus is simple faith. And once you become a follower of Jesus, you immediately know exactly how to live in this new way, right?

Wrong. Following Jesus and living for him isn’t always easy. It takes practice and patience to learn how to live as a Christ-follower. Every believer learns to develop ways of living that will help you mature in your faith, make you more like Jesus, and grow a deeper relationship with God. You don’t have to try to figure all this out on your own. Following Jesus is full of constant learning and growing. The good news is that Jesus is the best Guide and Friend, who is always right there with you, helping you as you grow more like him.

Use I Am New with an individual student or walk through this resource with a small group of students. Weekly Mentor questions are provided to help you debrief what your students are learning.

Each week you’ll find:

• Several days of Bible Studies (using Bible Study Methods)
• Challenges
• Thought-provoking experiences
• Hard Questions
• Marks of a Disciple (Life Application)
